G-Sync causing Battlefield 4 crashes

Talk about NVIDIA G-SYNC, a variable refresh rate (VRR) technology. G-SYNC eliminates stutters, tearing, and reduces input lag. List of G-SYNC Monitors.

(Well, I played with one GTX 670 for quite some time and upgraded to a 780Ti so I could play at 1440p *SOON*)
So... is this a thing? You guys are making me lose hope here. I have two 4gb GTX760s with no intention to upgrade or sell them until my next complete build, and I really can't justify spending $800 on a monitor that doesn't work with my hardware. And I'm basically getting it for Battlefield 4. Yikes!

I hate bumping this, having the last reply, but does anyone have further information on this? G-Sync compatibility with SLI and BF4 is critical to me, and I am very much ready to purchase a Swift if this will work properly. The SLI issue would destroy the viability of this product for me.

BF4+g-sync is simply not playable (severe stuttering and FPS drops) with SLI enabled (2 Titan Z's 340.52 driver). The behavior is the same for all video settings in BF4 (Ultra, High, Medium, and Low).
With SLI disabled the game runs smooth on g-sync.

Can you give me more details? OS? Do you have additional monitors enabled? System specs? Which particular maps? Which G-sync monitor are you using?

Sure, here's the additional info:

The problem occurs on any of the BF4 maps under any video settings (Ultra, High, Medium, and Low), even the test range.
OS: Windows 8.1 Pro
G-Sync monitor: Asus Rog Swift PG278Q
Do you have additional monitors enabled? No
System Spec: Intel I7-4960X CPU (OC'ed to 4.5Ghz), 32Gb Corsair Donimator Platinum memory, Asus P9X79-E WS motherboard, Samsung 840 Pro SSD, and two Titan Z's (340.52 driver clean install with DDU).

If you have free time, can you do a quick test for me? Can you try running the game at 1080p and let me know if the stutter is still present with G-Sync on? If you drop the refresh rate to say 120hz or 60Hz, do you also still have the stutter?

Great, thanks!
I dropped the refresh rate to 120hz and 60hz in 1440p and the stutter was still there. I'll try the game at 1080p tonight once I get home from work.
